Mo supports automated daily ingestion of employee data via CSV over SFTP. This keeps your employee data in sync without requiring manual uploads.
How It Works
Your HRIS generates a CSV export in the Mo CSV Template.
You make this file available for Mo via one of two integration options:
Customer-hosted SFTP (preferred) – you host the SFTP server and Mo connects to collect the file.
Mo-hosted SFTP (drop zone) – Mo provisions credentials for you to securely upload the CSV to Mo’s SFTP server.
Mo processes the CSV daily and updates your employee records automatically.
Option 1: Customer-hosted SFTP
What you do:
Configure your HRIS to export the CSV daily in Mo’s template format.
Automate the report to be placed on an SFTP server that you manage.
Share with Mo:
Your SFTP server details (hostname, port, directory path).
The public SSH key you generate for authentication.
What Mo does:
Connects securely as the SFTP client using your provided details.
Collects the CSV daily and updates your user data.
Option 2: Mo-hosted SFTP
If you don’t have your own SFTP server, you can upload directly to Mo’s SFTP server.
Setup process:
Mo provisions access
Mo generates your credentials (SSH key pair or username/password) and assigns you a secure folder (“drop zone”) on our SFTP server.
Mo shares these details with you securely.
You configure the upload
Set your HRIS to export the CSV daily in Mo’s template format.
Configure the export job to upload the file to Mo’s SFTP server using the credentials provided.
Ensure the file overwrites or replaces the previous day’s file so Mo always processes the latest version.
Mo processes the data
Mo monitors your folder and processes the file daily to update your users.

Please Note: SFTP integration at Mo is managed by an implementation coordinator at Mo. Before beginning the setup steps in this guide, please contact Mo to identify your implementation coordinator.
